A one-two punch of wildfires and drought threaten Brazil’s coffee and soybean crops, with no relief in sight. 'From May through August, some key agriculture areas faced the driest weather since 1981, according to natural disaster monitoring center Cemaden. And there is no relief in sight: there’s no rain in the forecast for at least two more weeks, a period when coffee trees usually flower and farmers start planting soy. The lack of rainfall poses risks for global crop supplies in a world that’s become increasingly dependent on Brazil for everything from sugar to coffee and soybeans. Losses could amplify financial stress for Brazilian farmers already contending with a steep decline in prices.' https://hubs.li/Q02ND3CH0

FarmTogether Readies Expansion Push With New CEO David Gould at Helm FarmTogether, an investment firm specializing in U.S. farmland, has a new sheriff. Earlier this month, FarmTogether named David Gould, the firm’s former managing director of capital formation, as CEO, replacing outgoing boss Jared Hine, who also previously served as finance chief. Gould’s appointment coincides with the firm’s surpassing of a major threshold — $200 million in AUM — an impressive feat in any economy but especially one riddled in uncertainty. https://hubs.li/Q02N87HW0

Ensuring the UAE’s food security in an unstable region 'A key aspect of the UAE’s approach to food security has been the strategic involvement of the private sector. Companies like Al Dahra, a prominent Abu Dhabi-based agribusiness, have played a crucial role in implementing the nation’s food security policy. Al Dahra’s expansive operations, spanning five continents, have significantly contributed to the UAE’s efforts to secure its food supply chain. The company’s investments in agricultural land abroad—and its focus on essential commodities like rice, flour, and animal feed—align closely with the UAE’s strategy to diversify its food sources and reduce import dependency. Another notable private-sector contributor is Elite Agro, a leading Emirati producer, which has been instrumental in increasing the domestic production of fruits and vegetables. The adoption of advanced farming techniques, including hydroponics and vertical farming, directly supports the UAE’s goal of enhancing local food production using innovative technologies.' https://hubs.ly/Q02N8fq10

Australia, Argentina wheat harvest have high potential to impact U.S. wheat prices 'Even though Australia and Argentina produce only 6% of the world’s wheat, these two countries are projected to export 15% of world wheat exports, which makes them influential players in the export market. Australia exports hard white winter wheat and Argentina exports hard red winter wheat, which compete with Oklahoma and Texas exported wheat.' https://hubs.li/Q02N8fpZ0

Global AgInvesting reposted this
We’re proud to announce that we’ve raised more than $15MM of farmland capital and have invested $8MM in leading farmers across the Midwest. This comes at a time of immense financial strain for America’s farmers. The USDA projects net farm income and working capital will fall by 37% and 21% from 2022 levels, while interest rates on farm loans reach up to 8-9%. Despite this, farmers need more capital than ever before, and Fractal exists to meet this need while keeping farmers at the center of our agricultural system.
